CHINESE Martyrs Apolytikion Tone 3"Seeing how beautiful..."
When you renounced your false ancestral errors all,
you came to know that Christ is God and Lord of all.
When you courageously proclaimed that He is the only Savior,
you endured the suffering and the tortures as if you were
bodiless, and you received from His hand the unfading crown.
And now you intercede for all of China
to see the light of knowledge, O Martyr Saints.
CHINESE Martyrs Troparion Tone 5
In a pagan land ye were enlightened by the Orthodox Faith, / and having lived in the Faith but a little time, / ye inherited the eternal Kingdom. / By the purity of your Christian ways / ye put to shame the false Confucian piety / and trampled demon-inspired Buddhism underfoot as refuse, / sanctifying the Chinese land with your blood. / Wherefore, we pray: / Entreat the Master of all / that He enlighten your land with Orthodoxy in these latter times, // and strengthen us therein.

Thou didst finish thy life in piety, O godly-minded Andrew,/ Thou wast a pure vessel of the Trinity and a companion of the Angels./ May peace and forgiveness be granted, through thine intercession,/ to those who honour thee.
Kontakion of St Andrew Tone 4
Of thine own free will thou didst become a Fool, O Andrew,/ and utterly hate the lures of this world./ Thou didst deaden carnal wisdom through hunger and thirst,/ through heat and bitter frost./ By never avoiding the hardships of weather thou didst purify thyself as gold in the furnace.

CHINESE Martyrs Kontakion Tone 1
O Martyrs of these latter times, / ye whitened your garments in the blood of the Lamb, / and shed your own blood for Christ. / Wherefore, ye now minister unto Him day and night / in the Church of heaven. / Therefore, entreat Christ for us, O glorious Martyrs, / that He hide His little flock from the beguilement of Antichrist, / and that He lead all of us out of great tribulation // unto a land of never-waning light.
